Motivation help?

Serene_Cherry_Blossom

So personally i believe i get the best results/most motivation when i do my fitness stuff with someone else. i refer to this person as my fitness buddy we work out together, walk together, exchange motivational quotes, share healthy recipes, keep each other updated on progress, and push each other. i have now found myself without this and i went way of track due to it. the past 5 and a half months i threw away all my progress and gained 10 pounds. i find myself now feeling like its impossible but i more than ever want to do it. my goal is to lose 30 pounds in 7-9 months. i have several big things coming up that id like to look my best for marine corps ball, 18th birthday, and just to feel better about myself. anyone have any advice on how to keep motivated or get a new fitness friend? is it possible to have a virtual fitness friend and still get that same push?
